UNICORN MINDS
SERVICES
I provide personalized sessions focused on strategic study planning to align with the learning style of my unique learners, identifying their unique strengths and providing targeted support through informal assessment, intervention planning, assistive technology, executive functioning, social, emotional, and academic support. I cultivate a growth mindset that enables gifted individuals to see challenges as opportunities to grow rather than obstacles to their progress. They learn problem-solving skills like problem identification and analysis, and developing effective and practical solutions. These abilities are beneficial in academic settings and in many other areas of life where individuals may encounter obstacles and challenges.
Executive Function Coaching
Difficulties with executive function can negatively impact various aspects of an individual's life, including academic, professional, and personal. The areas I address in executive functioning are motivation, time management, information processing, focus, attitude, attention, adaptability, and utilization of academic resources. During the sessions, the primary focus is cultivating a growth mindset, creating SMART goals, and helping students develop metacognitive skills that combine the abilities needed for success in lifelong learning.
Academic Remediation
The sessions will concentrate on formulating particular strategies that will help students excel in reading, writing, and math. This could be accomplished by selecting suitable assistive technology, using visual thinking tools, comprehending text using research-based strategies, and making their learning more meaningful and achievable.
Social and Emotional Intelligence Development
In an ever-evolving world where interpersonal relationships and emotional resilience play pivotal roles in success, the importance of social and emotional intelligence cannot be overstated. My services are designed to empower individuals with the skills and insights necessary to navigate life's complexities with confidence and grace. Through tailored coaching sessions and practical exercises, I facilitate a journey of self-discovery and growth, enabling our clients to cultivate meaningful connections, manage emotions effectively, and achieve their fullest potential.
Study and Test Skills
If an individual struggles with test taking or needs to improve their study skills, I am here to help. Together, we create a comprehensive toolkit that will enable them to plan and prioritize the tasks effectively, analyze tasks to break them down into manageable portions, organize materials and time to meet deadlines, reflect on their performance, and decide the next course of action, implement spaced repetitions for adequate test preparation, and optimize your notetaking to make it faster and more efficient. With these strategies in place, one can be confident in their ability to excel academically and achieve your goals.
Consultations with Schools and Allied Professionals
As an educational professional, my primary goal is to ensure that every child's needs are met to help them achieve their full potential. Depending on the specific circumstances of each case, I work closely with the school and other professionals to develop a comprehensive plan that considers the child's unique needs and strengths. Whether we are addressing academic, social, or emotional concerns, I believe that a collaborative, team-based approach is essential for success. By working together, we can create an environment that supports the child's holistic development and sets them up for future success.
